Summer activities in the Gröden vally
Adventures in the Dolomites
In summer, the surroundings of the Arbea Apartments, set at the foot of Seiser Alm, never stop exciting: they are a feast for the eyes, a joy for the senses and endless inspiration for the soul. Fields, pastures, woods and austere rocks towering over gentle green valleys – all of them can be easily explored on foot thanks to the maze of charming trails that wind towards the picturesque village of Ortisei and to Seiser Alm, challenge the imposing peaks of Sassolungo and Sassopiatto, cross the Rasciesa High Alp and the charming Vallunga valley, offering along the way lots of breath-taking views and long-lasting memories. Unmissable are the Tour of Bulla Mills and the Geotrail of Bulla/Pufels that leads towards the Pinei Pass.
Meanwhile, passionate road bikers can enjoy cycling over the passes of the Dolomites, taking advantage of such spectacular itineraries as the Tour of the Four Passes, also known as Sellaronda, that can be easily reached from the Arbea Apartments, setting off towards Ortisei. At the same time, unpaved paths and dirt roads are the essence of what a mountain biker longing for natural beauty might ever dream of: the fabulous panorama-tour of Seiser Alm, the challenge of Città dei Sassi (literally “city of rocks”) at the foot of mighty Sassolungo, the exciting single trails of the Tour Under the Odle Peaks and the thrill of the Ciampinoi freeride area. It is also worth remembering the famous Sellaronda MTB Track Tour and the trails of the legendary MTB race Hero Südtirol Dolomites.
Besides, Val Gardena and Seiser Alm can also offer lots of other summer activities: climbing and via ferratas, golf and horse riding, paragliding and slackline, as well as a wide range of other adventures.
